SURL

SURL are a four-member Korean indie band that offers a refreshing take on the genre’s typical style. Recognized both in Korea and overseas for their catchy songs, superb musicianship, and honest lyrics, SURL pushed the boundaries in the Korean music scene and created genre-blended hits through collaborations with hip-hop musicians such as Jay Park and Hash Swan.
After winning the Grand Prize at the ‘2018 Shinhan Card Rookie Project’ and Excellence Award at the ‘EBS Hello Rookie with KOCCA’ the same year SURL officially became the “super rookies” of the Korean indie scene.

Within a year after their debut, SURL were catapulted into the global music scene. Since then, the band has performed at leading overseas festivals in Canada, Germany, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, and the U.S. (SXSW).

In 2022, SURL raised their profile by appearing on Mnet’s band survival program “Great Seoul Invasion” where they finished in second place. In October, they also released their first full-length album [of us]. After their new release, they went on a national tour of 6 cities in Korea. Furthermore, in April 2023, SURL held a North American tour in 13 cities, including U.S. and Canada, attracting global attention. The team is further cementing its global presence with a six-city Asian tour in the fall, followed by a “Korea Spotlight” Mexico showcase and additional shows in L.A. and San Francisco.
